Autorenporträt
The Rhode Island Jewish Historical Association has compiled a fascinating collection of photographs that chronicles the Jewish families, neighborhoods, synagogues, businesses, and hospitals in the state. Most of the photographs have been drawn from the archives of the Rhode Island Jewish Historical Association, which was founded in 1951 and is the oldest local Jewish ethnic society in continuous operation in the United States. This volume is a wonderful testament to the passion and strong religious values that drive this important community.
